like i said guys, its a rotor, not a drum. drum brakes dont have calipers and rotors. i dont think i will be able to get the torch today, but i will try

Rotor can mean disc or drum, depending on who you ask, though. Rotor simply means it's a round part that moves in a circle. Are those unified hub and rotor, or are they seperate from the hub?

i finally got the left rear off, but guess what. the new rotors arent properly spaced, so theyre going back along with the brake pads. the holes for the lug nuts are off by about quarter inch. i didnt both with the right side because i dont want to drain the brake fluid all out and end up with a full line of air.

oh, and im contacting the BBB about this company. its impossible to have 4 out of 6 things incorrect.

im also going to replace the rear calipers. the only one i took off has a small leak in the center of the piston, and has a bad seal. i checked them before at a dealership, they were $26 for remanufactured ones
